Symbols
« on: Saturday 05 December 20 12:48 GMT (UK) »
Does any one know what the symbols written lightly in front of each name, means?
This is a membership list for the NG Kerk in 1825.
Looking at the 16th entry Isabella Almond, hoping it is a clue that might help with finding more info on her.

Thanks

I assume you mean the letters and not the cross symbols?
Logically they seem to represent the first letter of the surname ...

Oh! I see that now, thanks TreeSpirit.
 
Strange that it was done like that, the year 1824 and early there was nothing written.

So that is not a hidden clue :(
